  1. PMP. And on your resume. I don't care that you were an Eagle Scout, what college clubs you were in, or your damn hobbies. I want to know you are experienced in the job, not planning on playing pickleball or going hiking with you.
  2. Except their mines are sheep turds and jars of jizz. Still gotta be careful, but not as bad as a homemade bouncing betty or a ruskie fire and forget mine.
  3. If he wants a comparison, please do Mexico, Sudan, Burma and a few other places the world deals with while you are at it.
  4. Croatia is the longest Bosnian Border. That is like saying Texas Border with Mexico. Some of those areas saw almost zero war. Some were completely depopulated. There are airfields everywhere. Serbs and Croats, the chosen European defenders of either Central Europe or Slavic Europe (Depends on what Church you like) both mined the fuck out of that place. And it is still not the worse place on earth.
  5. Well 6-5 is a "winning season." ask aggy.
  6. Same here. Told a team to make sure they had a small zodiac with a motor on their trailer.
  7. When were you in Bosnia? Hike Mt. Igman or Trebovic?
  8. Hard to say you know exactly when it will fail. Unless you are this guy. And you see this. And cancelled. So now you are this guy s surrounded by SEC tards.
  9. Jerusalem could be an international city, since it is important to three major religions. This takes away the visible role the IDF plays blocking Palestinians from praying there and blocking Jewish groups from going to certain areas. Shitty role for the IDF troops. I bet they would love to give it over to another entity. Thus when Mahmoud goes boom or Jacob decides to go full Zionist, it is not the IDF's fault. I have said two things. Stop the settlement expansion and stop the current level of force in Gaza. Small team tactics? Special ops? Mossad tricks? Yep, keep them up. Never let up the pressure. The US committed one horrid atrocity we overlook in Afghanistan yes there are others, but this one is applicable. They hit a MSF Hospital in Kunduz with a AC-130. Were the Talibs on the wall? Yep. were those elements going to cause the collapse of the whole country? Nope. So if you really want to get that target, wait until he is not next to a hospital. I suggest you read this book. Rise and Kill First. it gives a solid history of how Israel would react vs. shitheads (Hamas, Hezbollah, PLO, etc.) and the legal recourse they had to go through internally. Now, it appears they do not have the same constraints. And for the record. The 1986 invasion of Lebanon did not succeed. Nor will another one. Just like the indiscriminate use of force in Gaza will not end it. Go kill the leaders wherever they are. Israel has to think about the international perception of their actions if they want to keep the dollars flowing and be seen as a modern nation. Fuck OU.
  10. Lot of bridges in this area. Gorgeous drive. Canyons will flood like a mofo. Lot of flood warnings already in place down stream. Some cleetus is going to try to surf down the Pigeon River.
  11. Palestine does have a Foreign Office. It sits in the UN as a non-voting member. Back in the PLO Days they had this. Arafat spoke before the General Assembly. Utilities- The UN does not ever like shit handed over. Why? Causes the UN Jobs which equal funds which tend to go to internationals who work for or sell shit to the UN. One reason Bosnia worked was it was NOT the UN overseeing reconstruction and the peacekeeping. It was NATO and a US/EU led group. Gaza and other long term crisis locations are careers for people. And they get paid damn well.
  12. 100%. When I said this one person told me to go fuck my mother, so be careful. Surly hate is real. Sadly the retired Diplomat is deceased. Otherwise she would have kicked this said persons ass both over policy and on implementation. A state, that is dependent on the Arabs is easily Israel's best way out. A-, they don't pay for it. B- if it gets out of hand let the UAE's SF deal with it. C- if that is what the arab street (not the leaders) want, cool. Remove the rationale for protests.
  13. I might say the Cultural Revolution was also pretty dumb. And Mao's wonderful Agriculture Reform concepts.
  14. No shit. It is China. That river could flood, take out a damn down river and we all know what that means.
  15. If you are buying the bbq I will meet you in Paris, Texas.
  16. Just got back on a 4 leg trip. 1 was an Airbus, the other 3, yep, Max 8's. I did not tell my wife about my thoughts on those flights.
  17. Yeah, and I would never go there to see it.
  18. Nah she just discovered the rest area she was planning on using as hours. Its ok Nicole, there are drunks all times of the day in Florida.
  19. This has to be the dumbest tourist trap idea in the world. This is worse than the crap the Emirates do. well we don't have any culture so to speak, so lets build a park replicating all the cool shit everyone else built and get them to come and see it. I always wondered how many Parisians would go to Dubai to see a knock off Eiffel Tower.
  20. I went to flight radar 24 and they had the NOAA and Mississipli WC-130 both tracked. Damn that was a tight flight pattern right into the storm.
  21. Buddy called from in between Gainesville and Tallahassee. Has about 10 acres. Already a few pines down.
  22. You saw my ride. 98 Cherokee. Runs like a beast. And I could strap MIA on the roof if need be. What brand charger?
  23. Does it come with a jump seat for @MissingInAction? And I don't see any Longhorns on it. I think that is just a box you put over your Tesla. (I know you don't drive one, that was more aimed at those who do.)
  24. State Department announcement. United States Announces $5.55 Billion New Military Assistance for Ukraine Press Statement September 26, 2024 Today, as part of the surge of assistance that President Biden directed ahead of his meeting with President Zelenskyy, the Department notified Congress of the intent to direct the drawdown of up to approximately $5.55 billion in defense articles and services from DoD stocks for military assistance to Ukraine under Presidential Drawdown Authority. This drawdown utilizes the remaining authority of the Presidential Drawdown Authority under section 506(a)(1) of the Foreign Assistance for fiscal year 2024 provided by the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024, which will expire on September 30, 2024. We are taking this step to ensure this Authority does not expire and the United States can fully utilize the funding appropriated by Congress. By doing so, the United States will be able to continue to provide a surge in defense articles and services to Ukraine from DoD stocks under planned drawdowns in the weeks and months ahead. These drawdowns have been made possible by strong bipartisan support from Congress. The United States is committed to supporting the Ukrainian military with the equipment they need to strengthen their position on the battlefield, defend their territory and people from the Kremlin’s brutal aggression, and prevail in this war to secure a just, lasting, and comprehensive peace. As President Biden has made clear, the United States and the international coalition we have assembled will continue to stand with Ukraine.
